Description Marc Schiffbauer gentoo-dev 2009-08-04 14:50:48 UTC
After my last update of alsa-utils the init script fails to load some modules so that /dev/dsp does not exist for example an apps like vmware do not have sound anymore.

I looke dinto the script and found that it was trying to load modules like this:
kernelsndmixer-oss 
kernelsndpcm-oss
kernelsnd-seq-oss
